Description
1 The present invention realtes to a titanium clad steel plate haviny an excellent bond strenath and excellent bending ability even after hot processing during its manufacturing process or even after heat treatment after manufacturing process, and also to a method of manufacturing the same.
More particularly, the present invention relates ~o a titanium clad steel plate, wherein a cladding metal layer consisting of at least one layer of titanium or a titanium alloy is bonded, as one body, with a base metal ].ayer consisting of at least one layer of carbon steel or low alloy steel, through said cladding metal layer's and said base metal layer's bonding to an intermediate layer of a metal selected from niobium, a niobium alloy, tantalum and a tantalum alloy, and also relates to a method of manufacturin~ the said titanium clad skeel plate which is useful as a structural material.
A titanium clad steel plate is a clad steel plate of which base metal is steel and of which cladding metal is titanium or its alloy having excellent corrosion resistance and heat resistance, and is u-tilized in many applications.
As manufacturing methods of titanium clad steel plate, the roll bonding proce.ss, the diffusion l bonding process and others are recently being studied in addition to the conventional explosive bonding process. However, titanium clad steel plates manufactured by these new processes have problems. In the roll bonding process, brittle intermetallic compounds are formed during hot rolling and thereby a satisfactory bond strength can not be obtained. In the diffusion bonding process, the use of a base metal of which chemical component is modified or the use of an intermediate metal is proposed, however, any proposed method is not industrially adopted, except for trial manufacturing of small scale because problems similar to those of the roll bonding process still remain to be solved.
Accordingly, only titanium clad steel plate manufactured by the explosive bonding process is extensive-ly used as materials for chemical equipments.
However; titanium clad steel plate of this explosive bonding process also has problems. For instance, titanium plate being commercially manufactured and marketed has a width of only about 2.5 m or below and the plate of a larger width is not available. Also, when the base metal is a thin plate, due to strain caused by explosive bonding or reduction in elongation of the base met~l, titanium clad st~el plate having an area sufficiently large to respond to market needs is not available yet.
For improving the above situation, methods are belng tried which can obtain wider and/or longer ~v~s~
1 titanium clad steel plate hy hot-rolling the titanium clad steel plate. No such method, however, is industrial-ly used yet.
For example, Japanese Patent Publication No.
432/1969 discloses a method for obtaining explosive bonded and hot-rolled clad steel plate of excellent bond strength by hot-rolling, at about 475 to 900C, the titanium clad steel plate which has a brittle intermetallic compounds region and a direct titanium-to-steel bonding region.
However, the above method was found to be an incomplete one, after conducting a proving test.
Namely, the rolling temperature of this method is in a lower range compared with that of normal steel plate;
therefore/ work hardening of the base metal is remarkably high, its elongation in tension test does noc meet the specified value, and its workability in bonding is remarkably reduced. The application of a heat treatment at 540C or above ~or improviny the above characteristics of the base metal results in large reduction in bond strength between titanium and steel and, in many cases, leads to a shear strength below 14 kg/mm which is a minimum value in many titanium clad steel plate specifica-tions. The characteristics of the base metal could not be improved by heat treatment below 540~C.
The above reduction in bond strength is caused by the fact that, in the heat treatment process, mutual diffusion occurs between the cladding titanium and the 35~
1 base steel and thereby hard and brittle intermetallic compounds are ~ormed.
For improviny these defects, there is proposed a method in which an intermediate metal is interposed between titanium and steel in order to prevent mutual diffusion between titanium and steel.
As manufacturing methods of this multilayered titanium clad steel plate in which an intermediate metal is interposed, there are, in addition to the above-mentioned diffusion bonding process, other processes such as the roll ~onding, the physical vapor deposition and the electric plating, In view of reduc-tion in bond strength during hot rolling, multilayered titanium clad steel plate is most preferably manufactured by the explosive bonding process.
The thickness of this intermediate metallic layer should be made to an allowable rninimum level.
A thick intermediate layer will possibly cause new inconveniences in the case of the clad steel plate .~ requiring a welding operation. Also, since the inter-mediate metallic layer is generally made of noble metal or a rare metal or a such metal alloy, the clad steel plate in which an intermediate metal is interposed has an industrial meaning only when its intermediate metal is used in a quantity as small as possible.
The thic3~ness of the intermediate metal layer is sufficient in several millimicrons to several tens of millimicrons, from the standpoint of safe prevention ~ a~
l of mutual diffusion However, achievement of the aboYe thickness of the intermediate metallic la~er is difficult in the normal explosive bonding process. ~hen an inter-media-te metal of l mm thickness is used, rolling to one tenth to one hundredth thick becomes necessary. This necessitates that the thickness of a clad steel plate before hot rolling is lO to lO0 times thick that of the clad steel plate after hot rolling, and manufacture of such a clad steel plate can not be conducted industri-ally.
In order to improve such defects, the inventor had found out a very useful method as described in the previously applied ~apanese Patent Application Kokai (Laid-open3 No. 53888/1981.
In the method, firstly an intermediate metal such as nickel, molybdenum, platinum, gold or silver, all of which effectively prevent mutual diffusion, is explosive bonded to steel then this clad steel formed is rolled by hot rolling or the like to a minimum thickness allowed to the intermediate metal, and subsequently this e~plosive bonded and rolled clad steel plate is interposed between a cladding material and a base steel plate, and they (three layers) are explosive bonded according to the known explosive bonding process and further rolled, and thus a clad steel plate having a thin intermediate metal layer is obtained.
E~periments conduc-ted after filing of the above 1 patent application revealed that, when the method of the above patent application is applied to titanium clad steel, exceptionally, its ~ond strength after hot rolling is still low and the bond strenyth is further reduced by subsequent heat treatment.
Tha-t is to say, it became clear that the ahove intermediate metal such as nickel, molybdenum, platinum, ~old or silver has excellent bond strength to base steel even after hot rolling but has insufficient bond strength to cladding titanium after hot rolling.
In proving tests, explosive bonded and hot rolled clad steel plate (Ti/Ni/steel/steel) had a bond strength of less than 10 kg/mm2 as shear strength after rolling and did not meet 14 kg/mmZ mostly specified for titanium clad steel plates. Meanwhile, the titanium clad steel of the present invention showed a shear strength of over 25 kg/mm2, even after hot rolling during manufacturing process or even after heat treatment at above 540C after manufacturing process, and the titanium clad steel plate of the present invention was confirmed to possess an excellent bond strength.
The present inventor conducted various investi gations and experiments to improve these defects of titanium clad steel plate, and as its result, the present Z5 invention has been achieved.
This invention relates to titanium clad steel plate of at least three layers ~hich contains, between titanium and steel, at least one layer of an 1 intermediate metal containiny any one of tantalurn, a -tantalum alloy, niobium and a niobium alloy.
The titanium material used in this invention is commercially pure titanium (at least about 99.4%
titanium by weight) or titanium alloy plate containing at least 73.05~ by weight of titanium such as Ti-5Pd or the like, and is often referred to as titanium plate in this invention. The steel material used in this inven-tion is SS material, S~ material, SM material and SUS
material all specified in Japanese Industriai Standards (JIS), and carbon steel or low-alloy steel similar to the above materials, and the like.
Hereinafter, the titanium clad steel of the present invention is explained in detail referring to the accompanying drawings.
Figures 1 to 3 are the drawings illustrating embodiments of the present invention. In the drawings, numbers indicate the following materials, and capital alphabets indicate raw materials and small alpha~ets indicate materials a~ter processing.

This invention relates to titanium clad steel plate of at least three layers ~hich contains, between titanium and steel, at least one layer of an 1 intermediate metal containiny any one of tantalurn, a -tantalum alloy, niobium and a niobium alloy.
The titanium material used in this invention is commercially pure titanium (at least about 99.4%

1 Figure 1, (a) to (f) are drawings correspondiny to a manufacturing method of Claim 13 of the present invention~ In Figure 1, (a), 1-A is titanium plate, 2-A
an intermediate metal and 3-A steel pla-te. The inter-mediate metal 2-A must be a metal which has excellent malleability and ductility and does not form brittle intermetallic compounds at each interface plate l-A
and the steel plate 3-A. Researches revealed that the most suitable intermediate metals are commercially pure niobium, niobiwn alloys such as Nb-Zr and Nb-Ti, commercially pure tantalum, and tantalum alloys such as Ta-Nb and Ta-Ti.
The titanium plate l-A, the intermediate metal 2-A and the steel plate 3-A are bonded by the known method into a three-layered clad steel plate shown in Figure 1, (b)o This bonding is conducted preferably by the known explosive bonding process shown in many li-teratures such as USP 3137937, but can also be made by other methods such as the known di~fusion bonding process and the known roll bonding process as disclosed in INCRA
Research Report of Jwly 1976.
The explosive bonding process has two methods.
The one is a method in which firstly the steel plate 3-A and the intermediate metal 2-A are explosive bonded and then the titani~n plate l-A is explosive bonded on the surface of the intermediate metal 2-A. The other is a method i.n which three layers are explosive bonded 1 simultaneously. In the former method, surface rougheniny ocurrs on the surface of the intermediate metal 2-A
in the first explosive bonding. ~lso, niobium or tantalum is susceptible to oxidation at its surface because of its activation, and, ~or the remo~al of the surface oxide film, surface polishing becomes necessary, which causes the loss of the valuable material. On the other hand, in the latter method, the interposing of the intermediate metal 2-A between the titanium plate l-A and the steel plate 3-A and the explosive bonding of these three layers are carried out simulta-neously. Accordingly, the intermediate metal, even if it is an active metal, is not contacted with air, therefore is not oxidized and there is no n~ed of polishing.
Moreover, there is no surface rouyhening and no material loss.
This three-layered clad steel plate is hot rolled into a thin three-layered clad steel plate 5-a consisting of three layers l-a, 2-a and 3-a shown in ~0 Figure 1, (c).
The amount of thickness reduction by this hot rolling ~difference of plate thicknesses before and after rolling, amount of plate thickness decreased due to rolling~ varies depending upon rolling conditions such as rolling temperature and rolling mill capacity.
In existing facilities, the maximum amount of reduction will bP the one in which plate thickness is reduced to about one hundredth. The minimum amount of g _ ~ 3~ ~ ~
l reduction can be O mm of the diffusion bonding process.
In the present invention, the amount of reduction is not particularly specified.
The thin, three-layered titanium clad steel plate thus obtained was confirmed to have an excellent bond strength and excellent bending ability.
Further/ this thin, three layered titanium clad steel plate 5 a is interposed, as an intermediate metal, between cladding tit~nium l-s and base steel plate 3-B, as shown in Figure 1, (d), and these three layers are bonded by the use of a known bondiny process such as the explosive bonding process, the diffusion bonding process or the roll bonding process. Namely, the titanium plate l-a of the thin, three-layered titanium clad steel plate 5-a is bonded with the cladding titanium l-B, and the steel plate 3-a of the clad steel plate 5-a is bonded with the base steel 3-B.
The abo-ve bonding is also done either in the two step method (khe thin~ three-layered clad steel 2Q plate 5-a is bonded to the base steel 3-B and then the cladding titanium 1 B is bonded thereon) or in the one step method (simultaneous bonding of three layers).
The latter method is more effective. Figure l, (e) illustrates the bonded clad steel plate 8-A.
This clad steel plate 8-A is rolled into a slad steel plate 8-a having a desired thickness. At this time, the amount of reduction is not specified.
As also de~cribed in the aforementioned s~
1 Japanese Patent Publicatlon No. 432/1968, when heated to a temperature of 880C or above, the crystal system of titanium is transformed from close packed hexagonal lattice to body-centered cubic lattice and the crystal 5 grains grow. Moreover, titanium absorbs gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, and thereby the physical properties of titanium deteriorate. Accordingly, in this invention, hot rolling is desired to be carried out below 880C, preferably in the temperature range of 650 to ~70C.
It was confirmed that application of a heat treatment to the clad steel plate after rolling, if necessary, for improving t:he physical properties of the base metal did not cause large reduction in bonding strength and the clad steel plate had an excellent interface bond strength even after the heat treatment.
This heat treatment temperature is in the range of 540 to 870C. When the treatment is done below 540C, it does not contribute to the improvement of the characteristics of the base metal. When the treatment is conducted above 870C, the physical properties of titanium deteriorate as described above.
In the hot rolling of this invention, heating and rolling can be repeated several times. Also, process annealing can be applied to prevent the deterioration of the mechanical properties of the base steel~
Also, the clad steel plate 8-a can be produced _ 11 --1 by bonding the cladding metal l-B, the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5~a and the base steel 3-~ to one another with rolling and ~inishing these three plates into a composite plate of a desired thickness. The clad steel plate 8-a may be also produced by firstly bonding the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5-a and the base steel 3-B by the roll bonding process and then the cladding titanium l-B is bonded thereon by another bonding process.
In order to give a desired thickness to -the intermediate metal [2-A in Fig. 1, (b), 2-a in Fig. 1, (c), (d) and (e) and 2-a' in Fig. 1, ~f)] of the final product, the thickness of the original intermediate metal 2-A must be carefully decided by fully considering (1) the thicknesses of the titani~n plate l-A and the steel plate 3-A in Figure 1 (a), (2) the amount of reduction in rolling into the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5-a of Figure 1, (c), and (3) the amount of reduction in rolling from Figure 1, (e) to Figure 1, (f).
The test conducted for the plate 8-a of Figure 1, ~f) in its "as rolled" condition revealed that the titanium cLad steel plate fully satisfied min. 14 kg/mm2 which is the specified value of shear strength of the titanium clad steel plate specified by JIS G
3603-1980. This titanium clad steel plate was subjected to heat treatment of 850C x 1 hr. and then tested for sheax strength. A shear strength which well satisfied the above JIS specification value was obtained. From the 1 results of tension test and bending test, the above titanium clad steel plate was pro-~ed to have an excellent bond strength and excellent ductility.
It was also confirmed that the present inven~
tion could provide thin or wide tltanium clad steel plate which cannot be provided by the conventional manufactur-ing process of explosive bonded titanium clad steel plate. Also, since the welding of clad steel plate is generally difficult, the fact that wide titanium clad steel plate having an excellent bond strength can be provided by the present invention method, is a significant matter.
Figure 2 shows another type of titanium clad steel plate manufactured by the present invention, in which an intermediate metal layer and a supplemental intermediate layer are comprised. In the figure, 2-C
is an intermediate metal correspondin~ to Claim 5 of this invention and is selected from tantalum, tantalum alloys, niobium and niobium alloys. In the figure, 4-C
is a supplemental intermediate layer selected from commercially pure copper, copper alloys, commercially pure nickel and nickel alloys, and is used to make the intermediate metal as thin as possible in the inal product. This supplemental intermediate layer must be a material which does not allow the formation of hard and brittle intermetallic compounds between the inter-mediate metal and the base metal.
In the above, the commercially pure copper is ~v~
l a copper plate of ~hich copper content is 99~ by welght or above, and copper alloys are the copper alloys containing at least 58% copper by weight. Also, the commercially pure nickel is a nickel plate of which nickel content is at least 99~0~ by weight, and nickel alloys are the nickel alloy plates containing at least 40.0%
nickel by weight.
This four-layered clad steel plate can be produced by bonding one layer successively on the base steel according to the conventional bonding process.
The four-layered titanium clad steel plate can also be produced by (l) previously bonding the intermediate metal 2-C and the supplemental intermedia-te layer 4-C
and then cold rolling or hot roll:Lng the bonded inter-mediate layer into a thin plate, (2~ bonding the thinplate to the base steel, and (3) inally bonding the cladding plate to the surface of the plate formed in ~2). Further, by hot rolliny this four-layered titanium clad steel, there can be produced thin or wide titanium clad steel plate which the conventional explosive bonding process could not provide. This four-layered titanium clad steel plate also can be subjected to heat treatment, after rolling, for improving the characteristics of the base metal. This four-layered titanium clad steel plate has an excellent bond strength and sufficient ductility, in as-rolled condition and after heat treatment.
Since the weldiny of clad steel plate is l generally difficult, the fact that large-sized titanium clad steel plate having an excellent bond strength can be provided by the present invention method, is signifi-cant.
Figure 3 shows a manufacturing process of four-layered titanium clad steel corresponding to Claim 7 of the present invention.
In Figure 3, (a), 2-D is an intermediate metal, and 4-D is a supplemental intermediate layer. These two intermediate metal plates are bonded together by a conventional bonding process such as the explosive bondin~ process or the di~fusion bonding process, into a clad plate 6-D as shown in Figure 3, (b).
By rolling this clad plate, a thin clad plate 6-d shown in Figure 3, (c) is obtained. In the figure, 2-d is the intermediate metal after rolling and 4-d is the supplemental intermediate layer after rolling. The rolling can be either of hot rolling or cold rolling, depending upon the material combination of the inter-mediate metal and the supplemental intermediate layer.After this rolling, the thin clad plate may be subjected to appropriate heat treatment for reducing the work hardening caused by the rolling.
The thin clad plate 6-d thus obtained i5 arranged between the cladding metal l-D and the base metal 3-D as shown in Figure 3, (d) so that the inter-mediate metal ~~d of the plate 6 d faces the cladding metal l-D and the supplemental intermediate layer 4-d o 35~
1 the plate 6-d faces the base metal 3-D, and these three pla-tes are bonded as shown ln Figure 3, (e). In the Figure, 7-D is the bonded clad steel plate. This bonding is carried out by a known bonding process of different metals, such as the explosive bonding process, the diffusion bondiny process or the roll bonding process.
In the explosive bonding process, the base metal 3-D and the thin clad plate 6~d are firstly bonded and then the cladding metal, 1-~ is bonded on the surface of intermediate metal 2-d. Alternatively, the three plates l-D, 6-d and 3-D are explosive bonded simulta-neously. The latter bonding is more efficient.
The diffusion bonding process can be performed either simultaneously or successively.
When the clad steel 7-D is converted to the clad steel plate 7-d of a desired thickness as shown in Figure 3, (f), the thickness of the clad steel 7-D is reduced to the thickness range from two thirds to one fiftieth by rolling, depending upon the rolling tempera-ture and -the reduction capacity of the rolling mill.
In Figure 3, (f), 6-d' is the thin clad plate after rolling, l-d is the cladding metal after rolling and 3-d is the base metal after rolling. The hot rolling can be conducted by repetition of heating and rolling several times. Further, a process annealing is also effective.
When the roll bonding process is used, at the time of rolling the clad steel 7-D, three plates 35~
1 namely the cladding metal l-D, the thin clad plate 6-d and the base metal 3-D can be bonded simultaneousl~
by rolling to finish into a plate of a desired thickness.
Alternatively, the thin clad plate 6-d prepared before-S hand is bonded to the base metal 3-D by the roll bonding pxocess, and then the cladding metal l-D is bonded thereon. Figure 4 shows a microstructure of the titanium clad plate with niobium intermediate layer obtained according to this invention.

1 Figure 1, (a) to (f) are drawings correspondiny to a manufacturing method of Claim 13 of the present invention~ In Figure 1, (a), 1-A is titanium plate, 2-A
an intermediate metal and 3-A steel pla-te. The inter-mediate metal 2-A must be a metal which has excellent malleability and ductility and does not form brittle intermetallic compounds at each interface plate l-A
and the steel plate 3-A. Researches revealed that the most suitable intermediate metals are commercially pure niobium, niobiwn alloys such as Nb-Zr and Nb-Ti, commercially pure tantalum, and tantalum alloys such as Ta-Nb and Ta-Ti.
The titanium plate l-A, the intermediate metal 2-A and the steel plate 3-A are bonded by the known method into a three-layered clad steel plate shown in Figure 1, (b)o This bonding is conducted preferably by the known explosive bonding process shown in many li-teratures such as USP 3137937, but can also be made by other methods such as the known di~fusion bonding process and the known roll bonding process as disclosed in INCRA
Research Report of Jwly 1976.
The explosive bonding process has two methods.
The one is a method in which firstly the steel plate 3-A and the intermediate metal 2-A are explosive bonded and then the titani~n plate l-A is explosive bonded on the surface of the intermediate metal 2-A. The other is a method i.n which three layers are explosive bonded 1 simultaneously. In the former method, surface rougheniny ocurrs on the surface of the intermediate metal 2-A
in the first explosive bonding. ~lso, niobium or tantalum is susceptible to oxidation at its surface because of its activation, and, ~or the remo~al of the surface oxide film, surface polishing becomes necessary, which causes the loss of the valuable material. On the other hand, in the latter method, the interposing of the intermediate metal 2-A between the titanium plate l-A and the steel plate 3-A and the explosive bonding of these three layers are carried out simulta-neously. Accordingly, the intermediate metal, even if it is an active metal, is not contacted with air, therefore is not oxidized and there is no n~ed of polishing.
Moreover, there is no surface rouyhening and no material loss.
This three-layered clad steel plate is hot rolled into a thin three-layered clad steel plate 5-a consisting of three layers l-a, 2-a and 3-a shown in ~0 Figure 1, (c).
The amount of thickness reduction by this hot rolling ~difference of plate thicknesses before and after rolling, amount of plate thickness decreased due to rolling~ varies depending upon rolling conditions such as rolling temperature and rolling mill capacity.
In existing facilities, the maximum amount of reduction will bP the one in which plate thickness is reduced to about one hundredth. The minimum amount of g _ ~ 3~ ~ ~
l reduction can be O mm of the diffusion bonding process.
In the present invention, the amount of reduction is not particularly specified.
The thin, three-layered titanium clad steel plate thus obtained was confirmed to have an excellent bond strength and excellent bending ability.
Further/ this thin, three layered titanium clad steel plate 5 a is interposed, as an intermediate metal, between cladding tit~nium l-s and base steel plate 3-B, as shown in Figure 1, (d), and these three layers are bonded by the use of a known bondiny process such as the explosive bonding process, the diffusion bonding process or the roll bonding process. Namely, the titanium plate l-a of the thin, three-layered titanium clad steel plate 5-a is bonded with the cladding titanium l-B, and the steel plate 3-a of the clad steel plate 5-a is bonded with the base steel 3-B.
The abo-ve bonding is also done either in the two step method (khe thin~ three-layered clad steel 2Q plate 5-a is bonded to the base steel 3-B and then the cladding titanium 1 B is bonded thereon) or in the one step method (simultaneous bonding of three layers).
The latter method is more effective. Figure l, (e) illustrates the bonded clad steel plate 8-A.
This clad steel plate 8-A is rolled into a slad steel plate 8-a having a desired thickness. At this time, the amount of reduction is not specified.
As also de~cribed in the aforementioned s~
1 Japanese Patent Publicatlon No. 432/1968, when heated to a temperature of 880C or above, the crystal system of titanium is transformed from close packed hexagonal lattice to body-centered cubic lattice and the crystal 5 grains grow. Moreover, titanium absorbs gases such as nitrogen, hydrogen and oxygen, and thereby the physical properties of titanium deteriorate. Accordingly, in this invention, hot rolling is desired to be carried out below 880C, preferably in the temperature range of 650 to ~70C.
It was confirmed that application of a heat treatment to the clad steel plate after rolling, if necessary, for improving t:he physical properties of the base metal did not cause large reduction in bonding strength and the clad steel plate had an excellent interface bond strength even after the heat treatment.
This heat treatment temperature is in the range of 540 to 870C. When the treatment is done below 540C, it does not contribute to the improvement of the characteristics of the base metal. When the treatment is conducted above 870C, the physical properties of titanium deteriorate as described above.
In the hot rolling of this invention, heating and rolling can be repeated several times. Also, process annealing can be applied to prevent the deterioration of the mechanical properties of the base steel~
Also, the clad steel plate 8-a can be produced _ 11 --1 by bonding the cladding metal l-B, the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5~a and the base steel 3-~ to one another with rolling and ~inishing these three plates into a composite plate of a desired thickness. The clad steel plate 8-a may be also produced by firstly bonding the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5-a and the base steel 3-B by the roll bonding process and then the cladding titanium l-B is bonded thereon by another bonding process.
In order to give a desired thickness to -the intermediate metal [2-A in Fig. 1, (b), 2-a in Fig. 1, (c), (d) and (e) and 2-a' in Fig. 1, ~f)] of the final product, the thickness of the original intermediate metal 2-A must be carefully decided by fully considering (1) the thicknesses of the titani~n plate l-A and the steel plate 3-A in Figure 1 (a), (2) the amount of reduction in rolling into the thin, three-layered clad steel plate 5-a of Figure 1, (c), and (3) the amount of reduction in rolling from Figure 1, (e) to Figure 1, (f).
The test conducted for the plate 8-a of Figure 1, ~f) in its "as rolled" condition revealed that the titanium cLad steel plate fully satisfied min. 14 kg/mm2 which is the specified value of shear strength of the titanium clad steel plate specified by JIS G
3603-1980. This titanium clad steel plate was subjected to heat treatment of 850C x 1 hr. and then tested for sheax strength. A shear strength which well satisfied the above JIS specification value was obtained. From the 1 results of tension test and bending test, the above titanium clad steel plate was pro-~ed to have an excellent bond strength and excellent ductility.
It was also confirmed that the present inven~
tion could provide thin or wide tltanium clad steel plate which cannot be provided by the conventional manufactur-ing process of explosive bonded titanium clad steel plate. Also, since the welding of clad steel plate is generally difficult, the fact that wide titanium clad steel plate having an excellent bond strength can be provided by the present invention method, is a significant matter.
Figure 2 shows another type of titanium clad steel plate manufactured by the present invention, in which an intermediate metal layer and a supplemental intermediate layer are comprised. In the figure, 2-C
is an intermediate metal correspondin~ to Claim 5 of this invention and is selected from tantalum, tantalum alloys, niobium and niobium alloys. In the figure, 4-C
is a supplemental intermediate layer selected from commercially pure copper, copper alloys, commercially pure nickel and nickel alloys, and is used to make the intermediate metal as thin as possible in the inal product. This supplemental intermediate layer must be a material which does not allow the formation of hard and brittle intermetallic compounds between the inter-mediate metal and the base metal.
In the above, the commercially pure copper is ~v~
l a copper plate of ~hich copper content is 99~ by welght or above, and copper alloys are the copper alloys containing at least 58% copper by weight. Also, the commercially pure nickel is a nickel plate of which nickel content is at least 99~0~ by weight, and nickel alloys are the nickel alloy plates containing at least 40.0%
nickel by weight.
This four-layered clad steel plate can be produced by bonding one layer successively on the base steel according to the conventional bonding process.
The four-layered titanium clad steel plate can also be produced by (l) previously bonding the intermediate metal 2-C and the supplemental intermedia-te layer 4-C
and then cold rolling or hot roll:Lng the bonded inter-mediate layer into a thin plate, (2~ bonding the thinplate to the base steel, and (3) inally bonding the cladding plate to the surface of the plate formed in ~2). Further, by hot rolliny this four-layered titanium clad steel, there can be produced thin or wide titanium clad steel plate which the conventional explosive bonding process could not provide. This four-layered titanium clad steel plate also can be subjected to heat treatment, after rolling, for improving the characteristics of the base metal. This four-layered titanium clad steel plate has an excellent bond strength and sufficient ductility, in as-rolled condition and after heat treatment.
Since the weldiny of clad steel plate is l generally difficult, the fact that large-sized titanium clad steel plate having an excellent bond strength can be provided by the present invention method, is signifi-cant.
Figure 3 shows a manufacturing process of four-layered titanium clad steel corresponding to Claim 7 of the present invention.
In Figure 3, (a), 2-D is an intermediate metal, and 4-D is a supplemental intermediate layer. These two intermediate metal plates are bonded together by a conventional bonding process such as the explosive bondin~ process or the di~fusion bonding process, into a clad plate 6-D as shown in Figure 3, (b).
By rolling this clad plate, a thin clad plate 6-d shown in Figure 3, (c) is obtained. In the figure, 2-d is the intermediate metal after rolling and 4-d is the supplemental intermediate layer after rolling. The rolling can be either of hot rolling or cold rolling, depending upon the material combination of the inter-mediate metal and the supplemental intermediate layer.After this rolling, the thin clad plate may be subjected to appropriate heat treatment for reducing the work hardening caused by the rolling.
The thin clad plate 6-d thus obtained i5 arranged between the cladding metal l-D and the base metal 3-D as shown in Figure 3, (d) so that the inter-mediate metal ~~d of the plate 6 d faces the cladding metal l-D and the supplemental intermediate layer 4-d o 35~
1 the plate 6-d faces the base metal 3-D, and these three pla-tes are bonded as shown ln Figure 3, (e). In the Figure, 7-D is the bonded clad steel plate. This bonding is carried out by a known bonding process of different metals, such as the explosive bonding process, the diffusion bondiny process or the roll bonding process.
In the explosive bonding process, the base metal 3-D and the thin clad plate 6~d are firstly bonded and then the cladding metal, 1-~ is bonded on the surface of intermediate metal 2-d. Alternatively, the three plates l-D, 6-d and 3-D are explosive bonded simulta-neously. The latter bonding is more efficient.
The diffusion bonding process can be performed either simultaneously or successively.
When the clad steel 7-D is converted to the clad steel plate 7-d of a desired thickness as shown in Figure 3, (f), the thickness of the clad steel 7-D is reduced to the thickness range from two thirds to one fiftieth by rolling, depending upon the rolling tempera-ture and -the reduction capacity of the rolling mill.
In Figure 3, (f), 6-d' is the thin clad plate after rolling, l-d is the cladding metal after rolling and 3-d is the base metal after rolling. The hot rolling can be conducted by repetition of heating and rolling several times. Further, a process annealing is also effective.
When the roll bonding process is used, at the time of rolling the clad steel 7-D, three plates 35~
1 namely the cladding metal l-D, the thin clad plate 6-d and the base metal 3-D can be bonded simultaneousl~
by rolling to finish into a plate of a desired thickness.
Alternatively, the thin clad plate 6-d prepared before-S hand is bonded to the base metal 3-D by the roll bonding pxocess, and then the cladding metal l-D is bonded thereon. Figure 4 shows a microstructure of the titanium clad plate with niobium intermediate layer obtained according to this invention.
As described above, there has been established, by the present invention, a method of manufacturing titanium clad steel plate having an excellent bond strength and excellent bending ability even after hot processing during its manufacturing process or even after heat treatment after the manufacturing process~

This two-layered clad plate was cold rolled into clad plate of iO.3+2.8~ mm thickness, 500 mm width and 2,500 mm length.
From this two-layered clad plate was cut a clad plate of (0.3~2.8) mm thickness, 500 mm width 5~
1 and 1,000 mm lenyth. The copper side of this clad plate was explosive bonded on commercially available JIS ~ SB42 steel plate of 150 mm thickness, 500 mm width and 1,000 mm length and three-layered clad plate was obtained.
Further, on the niobium surface of this three-layered clad was explosive bonded commercially pure titanium plate of commercial availability having 10 mm thic~ness, 500 mm width and 1,000 mm length.
This four-layered clad steel plate was heated at 850C for 1 hr. and immediately rolled into titanium clad .steel plate of 32.6 mm thickness, 1,000 mm width and 2,500 mm length.
Mechanical test results of the above titanium clad steel plate in as-rolled condition and after heat t.reatment of 850C x 1 hr. followed by air cooling were as shown in Table 2. Test items were in accordance with JIS G 3603 for titanium clad steel plate.
The results showed that this titanium clad plate was excellent in bond strength, ductility and ~0 bending ability, and well satisfied the specification values.
Microscopic observation for the cross section o~ the above titanium clad steel revealed that the intermediate metallic layer and the supplemental intermediate layer did remain uniformly with thicknesses of about 60 ~ and about 560 ~, respectively.
